* A 24-year-old who received a heart transplant at 15
* A 42-year-old who says the symposium “heals your soul”
* Another 42-year-old who wants women to take care of themselves first so they are well enough to take care of others
* A 51-year-old whose heart disease is still somewhat of a mystery
* And a 48-year-old who wants to encourage young women to take care of themselves now.
